She also does have a unique stance where she briefly "sways" you approach opponent, being able to use additional attacks such as an unblockable high to catch her opponent off guard. She has good speed, as well as damage output and is also decent in reach, being able to easily create a lot of damage to unwary opponents. Her style is a kick based one that uses alot of borrowed kick attacks from Tekken from characters like Baek, Hwoarang, Lee, and even Anna Williams.
